Phthalate esters are endocrine disrupters or mutagens. They are widely used as plasticizers and can be usually found in environmental samples, such as food, soil and polluted air. However, it is difficult to directly determine phthalate esters owing to their relatively low concentration and complex matrices. Therefore, preconcentration and separation have become increasingly important. In recen...

In this paper, a new simple and effective method based on dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction procedure is proposed for rapid and simultaneous separation and preconcentration of ultra trace amounts of benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (BTEX) in non-alcoholic Beer samples. In this experiment, a glass syringe was used as extraction unit. With this simple configuration, the centrifu...

In the paper, in order to pre-concentrate and measure the low values of Cu ions, the new, simple,quick and very sensitive method of Dispersed Liquid-Liquid Micro Extraction (DLLME) coupledwith flame Atomic Absorption spectrometry (AA) has been utilized. The DLLME techniquecoupled with AA )AA-DLLME) was run inside one narrow tube which constitute aqueous samples.In this m...

a solid phase extraction sorbent based on polyaniline/graphene nanocomposite is presented. the structure and morphology of synthesized nanocomposite were investigated by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and thermal gravimetric analysis. the dispersive solid phase extraction was employed to the isolation and preconcentration ...

a very simple, rapid and sensitive dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) followed by gas chromatography and flame ionization detection (gc-fid) was developed for the determination of phenol and carvacrol in honey samples. a mixture of 100 µl dichloromethane (extraction solvent) and 0.5 ml acetonitrile (disperser solvent) was rapidly injected into sample solution. thereby a cloudy sol...

an efficient dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction using tetraalkylammonium bromide coated silver nanoparticles (dllme-agnps) prepared in chloroform has been successfully applied as electrostatic affinity probes to the microextraction and preconcentration of terazosin prior to spectrofluorimetry analysis. this technique is based on a ternary system of solvents, where appropriate amount of mi...

the dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (dllme) method for determination of pb +2 and cd +2 ions in the environmental water samples was combined with inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (icp-aes). ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (apdc), chloroform and ethanol were used as chelating agent, extraction solvent and disperser solvent, respectively. some effective parame...

a simple, rapid and efficient dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction by use of ionic liquid (il-dllme)method, followed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) was developed for the preconcentrationand determination of palladium in water samples. in this method, an appropriate mixture of acetone and octylmethyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate was injected rapidly into the aqueous sample...

Sample preparation has been recognized as a major step in the chemical analysis workflow. As such, substantial efforts have been made in recent years to simplify the overall sample preparation process. Major focusses of these efforts have included miniaturization of the extraction device; minimizing/eliminating toxic and hazardous organic solvent consumption; eliminating sample pre-treatment an...
